第一篇：Family planning is the most effective way to solve the population problem the seriousness of which is often underestimated by us. Quite obviously family planning has so far made little progress here on this island. At a time when half of the world is suffering from starvation poor health and a deplorably low standard of living we simply cannot take lightly the population problem if we don’t control the birth rate right now we’ll surely lead a miserable life in the near future. Illiteracy is perhaps the main enemy of family planning. Countries, which share the highest birth rate such as Brazil and India, are also those which share the highest illiteracy rate. People there don’t even know what is "birth control." To me, the ignorance of family planning is a social problem. So we had better begin with social reforms through, say, legislation, etc. of course, we cannot deny the necessity of the medical approach and we should use it in conjunction with other methods. The answer to the question whether man can survive the three crises of the 20th century, namely, totalitarianism, population and pollution, is in our hands.第二篇：Overpopulation is a serious problem in many less developed countries for it brings about unemployment food shortage and retarded economic growth. Taiwan is one of the most densely populated areas in the world Although its teeming population didn’t hamper the economic development in the past three decades it led to cramped living space congested traffic and cutthroat competition in college entrance exams besides our labor-intensive products are losing ground in international competition So family planning seems all the more important to us in Taiwan As we know the goal of the family planning introduced by our government is two children or less for each married couple. My idea of attaining this goal is to impose a heavy tax on families which have more than two children from a prescribed date onwards.第三篇：According to some sociologists the most serious problem in the twenty first century will be the population problem because the excess people will create a lot more problems than governments can handle. First the overpopulation will lead to the food problem Food will not be enough to feed people and the scramble for food will lead to conflicts and wars Second the educational problem will also rise because of the student boom If there are too many students in a class (maybe over seventy or eighty) the teacher will find it difficult to give individual attention to them and devise effective teaching methods. If a child cannot be properly educated at home or school, he is likely to go astray, keep sliding into sin and bring a host of problems to society. The population problem should thus never be overlooked and the first step we should take in solving it is to push ahead steadily with family planning.
